Ben E. King › Lyrics › Dream Lover

That candy color clown they call the Sandman
Tip toes to my room, every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep, everything will be alright

Every night I hope and pray
A dream lover will come my way
Someone to hold in my arms
And feel the magic of their charms

Because I want someone
To call my own
I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone

Dream lover, where are you?
With a love, oh, so true
And the hand that I can hold
To feel you near as I grow old

Because I want someone
To call my own
I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone

Someday, I don't know how
I hope you'll hear my plea
Someway, I don't know how
You'll bring your love to me

In dreams, in dreams
My love lies all in dreams

Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and I'll dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till my lover's dreams come true

Because I want someone
To call my own
I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone

I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
No, I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
I wanna dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
